Trees need trimming. There must be 15' overhead clearance along the campground road and in campsites at all times. Period. Tree limbs must not be allowed within 12" of either side of the road. Period. I am so tired of scratches to my RV, damage to my TV antenna and other things on the roof, and tears in the roof itself. When a campsite is rented it is presumed safe for the intended purpose but if the trees aren't trimmed RVs get damaged. Meet your responsibilities!

Beautiful location and quiet. Dark nights helped star grazing.
Only issue was the mosquitos - hundreds of them and came out looking like we had small pox!

We have stayed at many Corp. campgrounds over the years, but this is this best run we have ever seen. The gentleman that cleans the restrooms is a 15 on a 1-10 scale. Management is excellent, everyone has a job and he supervises constantly. This has been a wet year, so bring mosquito spay, but not bad on sunny days.

Great place to stay. Grounds and bathrooms were clean. The campground was full, but was quiet and peaceful. Big Sandy is a beautiful lake.

Love the campsites on the lake - the sights, sounds and smells are wonderful. This is one of our favorite campgrounds.

Wonderful campsites $ staff. Showers & restrooms very clean. Suggestions: 1). Septic dump station area was terrible after a rain- muddy, yucky! An easy fix- filling in low spots & holes with some Class V would take care of most of the problem; 2). Please add more boat docks at the N boat launch. It’s badly needed!!! 3). Odor coming from N restroom vent chimney is putrid in the summer- year after year. Thank you!
